I created a simple Addon that emulates old (and most commonly used) LUA functions and frame templates from Cataclysm, because I’m too lazy to fix addons I didn’t code myself everytime when Blizzard changes the API or removes other stuff during the beta.

Big thanks to _Mike from OwnedCore for releasing a simple hack that allows us to use Addons in the current beta client. (It’s not my fault if you get banned for using this! Also don’t report errors to Blizzard caused by faulty addons!)

Functions

• GetNumPartyMembers
• GetNumRaidMembers
• LootSlotIsItem
• UnitIsPartyLeader
• GetActiveTalentGroup
• GetPrimaryTalentTree

Frame Templates

• UIPanelButtonTemplate2

Debugging

You can enable a short debugging info be setting outputDebugInfo to true. It should only display every error once (but sometimes it’s buggy and debugstack() returns nothing useful – I didn’t invest a lot time in this, at least the line numbers are working, I also didn’t care about CPU efficiency.)

Other Changes

• BlendMode DISABLE results in a crash
• CHAT_MSG_LOOT isn’t fired when looting items from mails – I’ve rewritten MailGet in s:Burro from scratch using MAIL_INBOX_UPDATE
• Mists of Pandaria Blizzard UI (Extracted by P3lim)
• Info Dump Thread on OwnedCore
• Initial Changes Thread on WoWInterface

Tested/Working Addons

• Auctionator
• AtlasLoot
• Recount (Graphs don’t work, they will crash the client!)
• TinyDPS

Download

Current release (April 20, Client: 5.0.1-15589): [download#105]

If you think there’s something important missing or I interpreted a function/template wrong please leave a comment!

Updated Addons

If you came here looking for Mists of Pandaria addons, I updated those I regularly use:

• _NPCScan (Changes)
  Rename directory to _NPCScan after extracting.
• Recount (Changes)
  Rename directory to Recount after extracting.

You may find other addons here.
